	Commentary	Don Quixote observing his horse at the stable and thinking about a name for him (Rocinante); also in the scene the greyhound. Vierge's style is absolutely masterly; carefully-done setting, with good composition, based on real places from La Mancha. Notice also the perfect use of light and shadow, halftones and shading; his short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast.
	Notes	1 - Vierge's original drawings (Chinese ink and wash) were reproduced by photogravure (notice the plate mark); the specific technique used, heliogravure, allows an excellent reproduction both of the original wash halftones and of the lines.
